Bazaar took out a large part of the community as far as i'm concerned. And anything that damages the community is a big no no :p PoK books also fall in that bracket.

It was like this in classic as well. Why play on a CLASSIC server and only pick and choose things you want because they are easier / liked more by you?

My reply was serious and wasn't a rant or flame.

Just because something is convenient doesn't mean it should be implemented. I'm all for the EC/Gfay trade back. Back in 1999 and 2000 there were 100-120 people in EC majority of the time.

Saturday Bazaar Nights had close to 200+

Somehow people sold/traded items then, I'm certain they can do it now.

PoK/bazaar killed the game and came about when a lot of the problems were introduced.

@ Karsten...

Hell no. Bazaar is a horrible, horrible idea and you should slap yourself for even offering the possibility.

Pros: Ease of selling items.
Cons: Price gouging. Less interaction among players. Elimination of bargaining and/or trading of items.

If you would like to explain to me how a larger amount of accessible supply in a give market encourages price gouging, I'm all for listening

im 100% down for abolishing lfg / ooc / auctioning in global chat channels.

EC tunnel works out awesome, sure NFP is convenient for good races, but its equally as close to neriak bank as it is to nfp bank. I think its cool, if you want to go shopping head to EC and see whats for sale instead of trying to pay attention to uber spammage in /auctioning, then finally seeing something you want only to realize they are on a completely different continent than you.

/ooc /auc /lfg global chat channels are fail, server pop is almost 600 at peak times. I think its time to remove this shit.

If there is a set standard in an easily accessible location - the prices will always be undercut.

However, this isn't a bad thing, it would offer a stabilized economy at the cost of CLASSIC era style content. It would make buying/selling more convenient, but as previously stated, convenient isn't classic.
